Dear Mr. Stearns:

We are sending under separate cover a copy of Tufts College Dental School catalogue in which you will find the information regarding the entrance requirements

I regret to say that it does not seem possible for us to admit the young Chinese student mentioned in your letter except under the rules governing the admission of foreign students which are the same as those relating to American students with the exception of the English requirement which is as follows:
"All applicants for dental student certificates upon credentials from foreign countries other than those in which English is the language of the people all or any part of which are earned or issued in said foreign countries, must pass a special examination in English* No counts are granted for passing the special English examination."

We do not accept special students except graduates of foreign schools who desire instruction along special lines

Yours sincerely
William Rice
